A true Cinderella Story: literally the last one in the tournament, Erin has vindicated the selection committee by not only winning SoSG March Madness, but doing so in dominating fashion. Whether commenting as herself, Jimbo, or Katie, Erin's slow-fingered trail of vanquished foes included, in order: MLASC, Mr F, FB, Dusto M, and Dr Geek*.

Congratulations Erin, and welcome back to SoSG. Your prize will be announced shortly.

*Just for the record, in the Jimbo-laden Final Round, her 1st half comment was at 8:44am to Dr Geek's 8:46am, and in the 2nd half she beat The Geek 2:03pm to 2:11pm.

For the entire run of this game, I set my computer to wake up every morning at 8 am. I worked all day with the SoSG window open on my computer screen. I had to forsake any potential naps, even when I desperately needed them because of my work hours and/or my child's schedule. I was a wreck.

In other words, I worked for this damn thing. So I'm glad to have won it. I look forward to learning about my prize.

And, there will not be a repeat champion should you guys do this next year. I can't take doing this all over again.
